OT: Our kids at risk from Iran fallout

[Guest guest]

Dear friends,

If the U.S. attacks Iran, radioactive fallout from U.S. depleted uranium

weapons, and from nuclear weapons used as " bunker busters " , will travel

around the world.

In the first one to two months after the attack, the entire Northern

Hemisphere

will receive a substantial dose of radioactive particles. (The fallout will

reach the Southern Hemisphere later, in lesser concentrations.)

All human beings are vulnerable to cancer, thyroid dysfunction, immune

suppression, and other health effects of radiation, but our ASD kids are

especially vulnerable because of their impaired ability to excrete heavy

metals (uranium is a heavy metal) and their already-impaired immune systems.

Some of our children have already been exposed to radioactive uranium oxide

from depleted uranium weapons used by the U.S. in Eastern Europe,

Afghanistan, and Iraq.

For more information on the risks that uranium and " silent nuclear war "

pose for our children, you can go to www.imva.info. You can find two

articles by clicking on " IMVA Archives " then on " Medical News " then on

article titles: " Medical and Public Health Implications of Uranium

Contamination " and " Silent Nuclear War " . (IMVA is the International Medical

Veritas Association, an organization which has been researching toxic causes

of autism such as mercury.)
